TE Connectivity designed the Type CM LUMAWISE LED Sockets as an integrated electrical and optical solution for the Cree XLamp® MP-L™ LEDs . TE's solderless LED Sockets for Cree XLamp® MP-L™ LEDs enable power to be provided to the LED using either a LED-to-board or LED-to-wire solution. The LED-to-wire solution features TE's AMP Mini CT connector which plugs into the socket. For conventional PCB mount applications, the board-to-board solution provides an electrical connection between the electrical pads on the LED substrate and pads on the printed circuit (PC) board. To give the designer innovative integration possibilities, the LED-to-inverted wire solution supplies power to the LED from underneath the PC board by wiring the AMP Mini CT connector which plugs into the socket.
